I was planning to buy a fairly large amount of USDT, but I received a private message—not in the order—inviting me to trade directly via bank transfer at a better price than the listed price on P2P.
I refused right away, not because that price wasn’t tempting, but because I clearly understand what the real cost is: getting out of P2P means losing the margin that secures the funds on both sides, losing the chat window that serves as evidence, and if anything goes wrong, Binance has no basis to intervene because the transaction was never actually made on the system.
An unusually good price, asking me to leave the app immediately as soon as they reached out, and avoiding replies when I asked again about the available balance—those three signs are enough for me to stop the conversation there.
I didn’t argue. I just took a screenshot of the message, reported that account in the app, and then returned to place the order normally with another counterparty who has a clear trading history.
Saving just a few percent isn’t worth risking the entire layer of protection that I already have in place.
